While navigating challenges in his post-playing career, Tony Gwynn Jr. remains a key figure in San Diego, where the Padres are the city’s only major professional sports team.
Being named for the best player in franchise history brings a level of fame in San Diego that most could never live up to., they immediately think of a Padres legend who was one of the best hitters in Major League Baseball history. The son of the Baseball Hall of Famer is the co-host of Gwynn and Chris. “It gave me a chance to kind of find my way, but I think now I’ve been able to carve out my own name. My dad’s legacy is pretty large, and I understand that.
Gwynn has faced some challenges in his post-playing career. The Padres are the only professional sports team in town if the San Diego Gulls of the American Hockey League aren't included. “When the Chargers initially left, it took a while…and I think to this day people are still raw about it,”. “I think, over time, people have softened in terms of shutting football out as a whole and have kind of opened up to it. They still hate the Chargers, and they’re very upset with that organization, but they enjoy talking football. Especially with the emergence of sports betting and fantasy football, everybody is dialed into it.
